On the verge of the end

Warning: Spoilers
This episode is simply perfect. First we have the cleaver, which was produced mainly by Christopher, Carmella brings up the feeling that disturbs her about it which is that it represents Tony, the latter didn't see it this way at first instead he took it as a complement. Heres where it gets interesting, on episode 13 we saw Chris bring up Ad to his wife after they bought the house, making it clear for us that deep down inside him, he still did not forget about Adriana. Now Chris would not agree, however, it is very subconscious. This thought is augmented by Tony's scene with Dr. Melfi by saying that he learned something about the subconscious mind. Back in season 1 (or 2 ) we saw Tony's preferences to women changed with his Russian gomar asking to talk to her instead of just having sex.

You might argue that this happened because of his attractiveness to Dr. Melfi which happened at the same time, which is by all means a valid point, however, there was also a scene with him and Chris in the car talking about his life and Tony at that time in the same season, was asking him about suicidal thoughts, depression which ultimately proves the end point of him learning something from Dr. Melfi.

There are a lot of details in this perfect episode, all in this marks the ending theme of this magnificent show, with the war on the verge.

Finally, it looks like there will be many small conflicts rather than 1 big war, with Tony and Chris relationship, Phill and Chris, Doc and Tony along with inside conflicts between the NYC mob on taking the leadership. This season should truly fulfill and deliver!
